Sentry Lodge: Lodge Lines to The Siege Map

Located at the Golden Alpine Holidays "Sentry Lodge" this is a one of a kind route & zone.

Description

Where else can you scope your lines while sipping on your morning coffee or tell stories over a beer about the "epic" line you just skied and prove it to the lodge staff.

With this route it is simple. Step outside and within a 5-10 minute ski tour your are on top of everything you have scouted from the lodge. From the biggest "gnar" or to slightly mellower faces, this zone has it all.

The most iconic and highlight run begins with a run down the steep mini golf of what is called, "the Lodge Lines", and then enjoy a nice long pow run all the way down to the choke of the valley.

You can then throw your skins back on and head back up for another lap, or a call it an early lunch enjoy a nice 45 minute walk back to Sentry Lodge where a hot soup awaits your arrival.
